Krea 2 review: aesthetic controls, and what this page runs

Krea 2 is Krea's own image model, announced on May 12, 2026. The open-weight card and the hosted API describe different controls. This page runs Flux 2, which Nano AI has priced, and it is not that API.

This generator runs Flux 2 for 8 credits an image at 1K. It is not Krea 2, not Krea 2 Medium, and not Krea 2 Large.

What Krea 2 is

The page krea.ai/krea-2, published May 12, 2026, calls Krea 2 an image model built for aesthetics. It says the model was trained from scratch, and it points at style references and moodboards. It also says K2 generates in 15 seconds or less. That timing is Krea's claim. This site has not measured it. The same page says Krea 3 is a newer editing model. This page does not review Krea 3.

The Hugging Face card for krea/Krea-2-Raw, last updated June 22, 2026, names a diffusion transformer with 12 billion parameters, license Krea 2 Community License, and two checkpoints: Raw and Turbo. It says Raw is not recommended for inference and is a base for fine-tuning, and that Turbo is an 8-step distilled checkpoint. The file it tells you to download is raw.safetensors. This site does not host that file.

Krea's API overview, read on November 1, 2026, says the hosted model ships as Medium and Large. Large is described as more than 2× the size of Medium. Endpoints are krea-2/medium and krea-2/large. Resolution is 1K only. List prices on that page: Medium text-to-image $0.030, with style references $0.035, with moodboards $0.040; Large $0.060, $0.065 and $0.070. The creativity field is raw, low, medium or high. Intensity, complexity and movement run from -100 to 100. Moodboards are limited to 1. The overview says to keep Krea 2 for weighted style references, moodboards, LoRAs and Generative Sliders, and that those controls are not interchangeable with Krea 3 image references. The button here does not send those fields. It runs Flux 2 at 8 credits and 1K, with up to 5 reference images. /krea-makina is a different search, about a steel firm and the older suite.

How to read a Krea 2 trial

01

The product home is krea.ai

Style references, moodboards and the creativity control are described on Krea's own pages. A result from Flux 2 is not a Krea 2 moodboard result.

02

Medium and Large are hosted variants

The API overview prices krea-2/medium from $0.030 and krea-2/large from $0.060, both at 1K. This site does not sell either endpoint.

03

Open weights are a third thing

The June 22, 2026 card describes 12 billion parameters, Raw and an 8-step Turbo. This site does not host raw.safetensors or apply a Krea LoRA.

04

This button is Flux 2

Flux 2 costs 8 credits at 1K. It does not send creativity, a moodboard or a slider from -100 to 100. /krea-makina is not this model.

Krea 2 controls and this site

The first data column follows krea.ai/krea-2 and the API overview as read on November 1, 2026. The second follows the Hugging Face card dated June 22, 2026. The third is this site. This page has not called the Krea API.

Where do the aesthetic controls live?

What is the difference between Medium and Large?

The API overview says Large is more than 2× the size of Medium, and prices Medium text-to-image at $0.030 and Large at $0.060, both at 1K. This site has not compared their outputs.

Can I download the open weights here?

No. The card krea/Krea-2-Raw, dated 2026-06-22, describes 12 billion parameters, the Krea 2 Community License, raw.safetensors and an 8-step Turbo. This site does not host those files.

Is this the same page as Krea Makina?

No. /krea-makina separates the steel firm at krea.tr from the older Krea suite. This page is only about Krea 2. The generator on that page is Nano Banana 2.1. The generator here is Flux 2.

Is Nano AI affiliated with Krea?

No. Nano AI is not affiliated with Krea. Krea 2, Krea 2 Medium, Krea 2 Large and Krea 3 are their names. This page uses their public pages, then offers Flux 2, which this site has priced.
